If Trump signs an executive order then how do the medical drugs prices go down?

Also a president taking a plane from a country as a gift without congress approval should be illegal.

Trump tried to set up another leader at the White House. This time the president of South Africa with the claim white genocide. Any type of genocide is bad but Trump made a point about this with Musk smirking away at the side.

Courts rule that Trump’s tariffs are not legal and Musk will be leaving his team after failing to make the huge savings he promised.

Elon Musk has hit out at President Donald Trump's signature tax and spending bill, describing it as a "disgusting abomination", in a widening rift between the two.

The tech billionaire posted on X that the bill would add to the US budget deficit and saddle Americans with "crushing" debt.

The budget, which includes huge tax breaks and more defence spending, was passed by the House of Representatives last month and is now being considered by senators.

"Shame on those who voted for it," said Musk, hinting that he may try to unseat the politicians responsible at next year's midterm elections.

The bill has the backing of President Donald Trump and would be the legislative linchpin of his second-term agenda if it passes Congress.

Musk left the administration abruptly last week after 129 days working to cut costs with his team, known as Doge.

The comments mark his first public disagreement with Trump since leaving government, after having previously called the plan "disappointing".

The South African-born tech billionaire's time in the Trump administration came to an end on 31 May, although Trump said that "he will, always, be with us, helping all the way".

In its current form, the bill - which Trump refers to as the "big beautiful bill" - has been estimated to increase the budget deficit - the difference between what the government spends and the revenue it receives - by about $600bn (£444bn) in the next fiscal year.

In a series of posts on X on Tuesday, Musk said that the "outrageous, pork-filled" spending bill will "massively increase the already gigantic budget deficit to $2.5 trillion (!!!) and burden America [sic] citizens with crushingly unsustainable debt".

In American politics "pork" refers to spending on projects in lawmakers' constituencies.

Musk has previously vowed to fund campaign challenges against any Republican that votes against Trump's agenda. But on Tuesday he fired a warning to those who backed the bill.

"In November next year, we fire all politicians who betrayed the American people," he wrote.

Looks like terrorists are foiled and must find another way to get into the country.

Donald Trump has signed a ban on travel to the US from 12 countries, including Afghanistan, Haiti and Iran, in a bid to "protect Americans from dangerous foreign actors".

I'd been out on a family cruise, thankfully disconnected from all sorts of news. Came back to have a friend put me up to date on Trump's latest nickname, TACO (Trump Always Chickens Out), with regards to his tariffs policies.

As soon as I heard that, I could have bet money that the above article would be written by someone (LOL). And sure enough, it was.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to realize that the best way to get under Trump's skin is to hurt his humongous (but extremely fragile) ego. FFS, it's like being governed by a 70-some year-old bratty, bully kid. Tantrums and all.

The frightening aspect of all this is that Trump is liable to make (more) disastrous decisions based on his hurt ego, rather than on careful analysis and wise decision-making. His enemies know this only too well... and can play him like a string puppet.

This is but one of the frightening things about TACO Trump. Another is the slew of pardons he seems bent on handing out like Halloween candy. It's common knowledge that all Presidents have used their Presidential pardon privilege. But Trump is pardoning outright criminals left and right. All you need is to suck up to Trump, or attend one of his million-dollars-a-plate fundraisers, and you get a "Get Out of Jail" cards for free. How the U.S. (I'll keep avoiding the misuse of the term "American") people have continued to put up with (and in many cases applaud and support) this deranged, egotistical, brittle maniac is totally beyond my comprehension.

They are both exposing themselves as spoilt 3 year olds.

Trump implicated with sex scandals of Epstein and Musk illegally buying public contracts from government is embarrassing for both of them.

Velveeta Voldemort going all in on pushing ICE round ups to the point of protests brewing in Ca now. And as mentioned years ago...Trump wants the protests to kick off into riots. That is slop to a pig at the trough. I'm astounded by the number of once small government and states' rights conservatives now endorsing militarized masked up brown shirts disappearing people, raiding businesses and door kicking private homes. Literally do not have enough words to it. Administration is beyond corrupt and entering authoritarianism.

Unified heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk has offered US president Donald Trump the chance to live in his house for a week to experience the reality of the war in Ukraine.

After Russian president Vladimir Putin launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, Trump vowed to end the conflict "within 24 hours" of his presidency if he was elected for a second time.

However, the 78-year-old has been unable to do so and has blamed Ukraine leader Volodymyr Zelensky for "starting the war".

Usyk, who dedicated his victory against Anthony Joshua in 2022 to the people of Ukraine, says Trump can live in his house for a week to better understand the situation in his country.

"I advise American President Donald Trump to come to Ukraine and live in my house for one week," Usyk told BBC Sport.

"Only one week. I will give him my house. Live please in Ukraine and watch what is going on every night.

"Every night there are bombs and flights above my house. Bombs, rocket. Every night. It's enough."

Zelensky was asked to leave the White House in February after a public exchange with Trump in the Oval Office, in which the American told the Ukrainian to show more gratitude for the United States' help in peace talks.

Asked whether Trump would change his opinion on the war in his homeland, Usyk said: "I don't know. Maybe he'll understand, maybe he won't.

"Ukrainian people are dying. It's not just military guys, but children, women, grandmothers, grandfathers.

"For me it's hard. It's my country. I worry about what happens in my country."

Usyk has been campaigning for peace in Ukraine since his his rematch with Joshua three years ago.
